George Smith

George A. Smith, author of A Life Lived Outdoors, is an outdoor writer, award-winning newspaper columnist, and television show host. The former executive director of the Sportsmen’s Alliance of Maine, the state’s largest sportsman’s organization, Smith has been an avid outdoorsman and traveler his entire life. He writes for The Maine Sportsman magazine, The Kennebec Journal, and The Morning Sentinel. In addition, he pens a regular blog for Down East magazine and The Bangor Daily News. When he’s not hunting, fishing, birding, or writing, he enjoys hunkering down with a good book and maybe a cold beer—he is very fond of Maine’s microbrews.
